Thanks for sharing this, although it is doubtful that it comes as any big surprise that men are generally less prone to doing domestic chores. Now perhaps upbringing has a lot to do with it, although sometimes I really think there is something miswired in the male brain that causes them to believe that they don't have to do anything around the house or that their obligation ends after they have helped produce a child. Or another possibility is that men act helpless and hopeless when it comes to these things simply to get out of doing it; of course that would suggest that they are then outsmarting us women and I just won't hear of such a thing. I'm known for teaching lessons under the guise of helping. Case in point, when I was away at college there was one boy that claimed to not know how to do laundry and figured he'd play on the sympathies and kindness of the hearts of us girls and get us to do his laundry for him. Intead, he got a lesson in how to do laundry, of course we didn't realize just how clueless he really was; we didn't tell him "unroll socks before placing in washer" and needless to say he didn't and then couldn't figure out why his socks weren't clean. It is obvious that his mother did him a grave disservice by doing everything for him.
As the author so clearly states, her husband does the things he does because he doesn't have a choice. So remove the choice and men will actually do something. Even if the wife is a stay-at-home one doesn't mean she won't appreciate some assistance and for the working woman the assistance is a requirement.
I live by the belief that "many hands make light work" and have been known to inquire if "one's hands are broken" or "if they are blind" when one refuses to do something, sits around and asks/demands everything or walks past something that needs to be moved or addressed and doesn't bother. My 10 year old son is finding out the hard way that I'm not the maid. In fact all of my children have grown up hearing "the maid quit and the slave ran away" or "hold on, let me prepare your bill". They catch my point. As a single working mom I'm not about to come home and wait on them like the servant and besides once they are out on their own there won't be anyone to do things for them unless they happen to be filthy rich in which case I have my list of demands
for all my years of unpaid work.

Now perhaps upbringing has a lot to do with it
Maybe it should be mothers have a lot to do with it?
Do mothers shy away from granting their sons household chores to do if they have daughters?
If you had a son and a daughter, would you get them to do the same sort of chores around the house?
If you had only sons, would you get them to do any household chores at all?
Okay that's enough questions from me
My point being that men probably need to be 'helped' for the want of a better word in doing these things from an earlier age so it doesn't seem like such a hurdle in later life.
Say: "O ye my servants who believe! Fear your Lord, good is (the reward) for those who do good in this world. Spacious is God's earth! those who patiently persevere will truly receive a reward without measure!" [39:10]

I agree with Br. Khalid, unfortunately mothers (at leastthe ones of my own mums generation), tend ot treat their sons like littel kings and expect daughters to pitch i nwith the household chores.
I don't do this, as far as I'm concerned anyone within the vicinity with a body in working order who expects to be fed, watered, clothed and sheltered pitches in with whatever needs doing, I ask my nephew to run errands as much as my daughters, children actually enjoy it.
And I hate hate hate, this 'help out' attitude that we have whenever a male does something around the house, it's not 'helping out', it's pitching in to make life and home a nice place to be. If a female cooking, cleaning, and other billion chores around the house is not 'helping out' then neither is it when a man does it as far as I'm concerned.
And when My servants question thee concerning Me, then surely I am nigh. I answer the prayer of the suppliant when he crieth unto Me. So let them hear My call and let them trust in Me, in order that they may be led aright. Surah 2 Verse 186

As salaamu alaikum Sr. Fozia
I laughed with the line about "anyone expecting to be fed and watered etc."
I have only one son and two daughters and my son is the youngest. He's now 10 but when he was 8 he was taught how to wash dishes and was taught to sort laundry and how to load/unload the dryer since he was 7. This is about the same age that the girls were when they learned. All of them were taught to clean up their own messes and put away their own clothes and if they couldn't reach the closet rod at least put the clothes on hangers and I'd do it. My eldest can cook and clean and has been able to do so since about 15 (cleaning started first then I was comfortable enough with her cooking); the middle child just turned 14 but can cook some things by herself already. My son wants to learn but so far he's only allowed to use the microwave. They all know about yard work and can each pump gas into the car. If anything they are more capable than former spouses at actually doing something and doing it in a decent manner. So the answer to the question is "Yes." Having both girls and a boy each is has been taught and the lessons will continue because I'm a busy mom and will not spend the rest of my time and energy saddled with all the domestic responsibilities; even if I was a stay-at-home mom I won't live with a bunch of pampered pansies.
Growing up there was the philosophy of "many hands make light work" and as I mentioned before I'm quick to say "the maid quit and the slave ran away". Indeed we have to teach both boys and girls these necessay life skills otherwise they will not have an easy time as college students nor as adults. Anyone that treats their sons like kings is reflecting the cultural norms they were brought up with and so continue it; I don't fault them because it is what they know but it does a grave disservice to males and makes females believe that is all they are worthy of no matter how much education/intelligence they have nor what their career path is. Pregnancy and childbirth are the only things that men cannot actively participate in...... if only

its sad , how can you make a man out of a boy if you dont teach him responsiblity, if you dont teach him hard work, if you dont teach him how to fend for himself. Forget if you are not a single mom, even if you are in very good circumstances you never know when things can change.
My son loves to tie himself in the highchair and I encourage him to learn how to open his belts because what if one day I fall and am not able to get him out, what if one day somebody breaks in?
not knowing how to do the laundry? For Gods sake my three year old son unloads the dryer and put s out laundry away including folding all the towels ect, makes his bed, folds his blankets, lines the shoes, cleans his room, gets himself ready, unloads the dirty trash bags in the rooms and bathrooms and puts new bags w/o ne helps. mashAllah
why not let your child do what they can do, it is said you are hurting them if you do for them what they already know how, ofcourse there are times when you can help , how else will your kids learn compassion and how to help others?
teaching them , giving them chores, help s them gain confidence , believe in themselves and feel like they are also contributing to their home.

By JULIE CARR SMYTHAP Statehouse Correspondent
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - A new law on fetal heartbeat detection for abortion seekers was tucked into Ohio's recently passed state budget.
It shares similarities with the high-profile "heartbeat bill" debated and sidelined last session but also has key differences.
The 2-year, $62 billion operating budget also included several other measures. They limited government funding for Planned Parenthood clinics and public hospitals that provide abortions and prohibited rape counselors receiving taxpayer dollars from recommending abortion facilities to women impregnated by their attackers.
The fetal heartbeat law would have the broadest impact since it applies to virtually every abortion sought in the state.
It's an informed consent law, which means doctors must look for the heartbeat and inform the pregnant woman of what they find before performing the procedure. The abortion can still proceed with the woman's consent.

The very best collectible automobiles are sometimes tucked away and off-limits to prying eyes. In the upcoming months, we will be gaining access to some of these amazing collections and bringing you never-before-seen photographs as well as insight into the cars and the people that collect them.
This fabulous collection is stored in a nondescript warehouse on the outskirts of Nashville, Tennessee. It holds some of the most-sought-after, best-performing models of the 1960s as well as some distinctive older classics. All of the examples reflect the individual character of the collector, and each one comes with its own story. We met with the owner, Cliff Ernst, who gave us a guided tour and educated us on drag racing, big blocks, and choosing the perfect car. His passion for performance is rooted in drag racing; he cut his teeth on the drag strips and stoplights of Ohio during the 1960s.
Walking around his immaculate white-tile showroom, we were shocked to see everything from Super Duty Pontiacs, Shelby Mustangs, factory-supercharged Thunderbirds, Corvettes and more! His awe-inspiring collection seems to culminate with two of the rarest and most desirable Camaros ever made: a gold 1969 Yenko Camaro and a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1. The former was the product of Chevy-dealer-turned-aftermarket-tuner Don Yenko. The latter was Chevrolet's answer for the serious drag racer who could append an extra $4,500 for an all-aluminum 427-cubic-inch engine option. Both are as powerful as they are rare.
Ernst sat down with us to answer a few questions and tell us more about his passion.
What was the first car in your collection?
In the mid-'70s, I bought a 1930 Model A Ford. I always wanted one in high school, but I needed to save $150 for college.
At what point did this evolve from a garage at your home into a dedicated facility?
In the 1980s, I allocated space at my business to keep the growing collection safely stored. In 1991, we built a dedicated warehouse for the collection. It was around thirty cars at the time. We now have around 45 cars.
Tell us a little bit about the gold Yenko.
The gold car was the prototype for the '69 Yenko. Certain features of this car did not make it into the 1969 Yenko production models. I am the second owner, and I have professionally restored it twice. It was featured in the July 1969 issue of Super Stock and Drag Illustrated magazine. Ed Professional driver Ed Hedrick was able to run an 11.94 (quarter-mile time) in stock form.
Do you think the previous owner regrets parting with it?
I sent him photos I had taken after the restoration, but I never heard back from him, so I like to think they got lost in the mail!
What feature of the Yenko cars do you like most?
The performance. When the Yenko cars first hit the streets, I was drag racing a '65 Corvette. They consistently posted faster times (than the Corvette). They made winning look easy!
Besides the gold Yenko, what is your favorite car?
The '32 Packard V12 or the supercharged '57 T-bird.
Performance does seem to be the theme here. Was it a goal of yours to have the ultimate production versions of these cars or is it a coincidence?
I prefer to have the highest-performance model available. The '57 Chevy is fuel injected and the T-birds are supercharged. You get the idea!
With the quality of the restorations you have here, have you ever considered restoring and building cars as a business?
No, my employees are so meticulous that this could not be a profitable business!
Did you foresee that the '69 Camaro would be the iconic collector car that it is today?
No, I just thought they had great styling and a multitude of performance options.
I know your cars are well documented, but what do you think about clones and recreation cars?
Let's just say they are not for me.
Owning one of the original ZL1 Camaros is a real honor; do you see the 2012 ZL1 as a worthy successor?
It is a good continuation of the name and a nice move by Chevy.
Do you have anything special in your home garage?
I have my first '69 Yenko that I purchased in 1987. It is kept at the house for weekend cruises.
My daily driver is a 2008 black (Dodge) Challenger SRT8.
Are you done collecting, or is there always room for one more?
Certain cars will continue to be possible additions, but, more realistically, I need to be thinking about thinning the herd.
Thanks, Cliff, and happy motoring!

"It's important how my peers, friends, family and hopefully the fans in Chicago and around America remember me," Briggs said. "I just want to be remembered as someone who loved to play the game."
Front office men who have studied him say his burst and quickness still are exceptional.
"He is really in-tune to what's going on," Bears center Roberto Garza said. "This was one of the best camps he has had since I've been here (2005). He knew exactly where to be and how to get there. You can tell all his experience makes him at a different level."
The argument can be made that Briggs, who has been overlooked at times while playing next to Urlacher, never has been more important to the Bears defense.
Briggs believes his value will not fluctuate based on Urlacher's situation. But someone will have to fill production and leadership voids if Urlacher can't.
Briggs simply plans to be himself.
"In terms of leadership, I'm still going to be the same guy," he said. "My job is not to be somebody else; it's to be who I am."
Part of that is being a player who is available. He never has missed more than two games in a season.
Probably more than ever, the Bears appreciate that durability.

Alabama's Nick Saban at 2013 SEC Media Days: Five key takeways
Alabama coach Nick Saban held a press conference at SEC Media Days on Thursday. Here are five key takeaways from his appearance.
1. Nick Saban's suit game is top notch. This is well known at this point, of course, and is clearly demonstrated in the photo above. But this needs to be mentioned nonetheless. Acceptable adjectives to describe Saban's SEC Media Days attire: Strong. Well-fitting. Champion. Roll Tide. Picking out formal wear is a process, and Saban, unsurprisingly, excels.
2. After greeting "1,200 of his closest friends," Saban described how the media is "crazy" for venturing to make preseason predictions in advance of a college football campaign. Sure, the media has picked the wrong SEC champ in 17 of the past 21 years. BUT THERE IS AN EXPLANATION COACH:
Saban kids about SEC media going 4-17 in picking conference champ last 21 years. Media: Hey, those teams underachieved.—
Stewart Mandel (@slmandel) July 18, 2013
3. Saban continued his push to convince the SEC to adopt a nine-game conference schedule, and then proceeded to explain that all is not fair in love and SEC football:
Saban on scheduling: "There can never be an equal path (for all teams). Everyone doesn't play everyone in NFL"—
Brett McMurphy (@McMurphyESPN) July 18, 2013
Asked if he understood Les Miles' frustration with having Florida as a fixed cross-division opponent, Saban responded:
"I coached at LSU, so if anybody understands it, I understand it, you understand?"
4. This did not happen, and we are all worse off for it:
Sadly, it is clear that Nick Saban's time at the podium is not going to include an attempt at speaking Australian.—
George Schroeder (@GeorgeSchroeder) July 18, 2013
Saban was not wearing this hat. Also sad.
5. The last question for Saban was on the UT-CHATTANOOGA MOCS. Press conference redeemed.

Autumn's Arrival: Time to Move into the Toast UK Catalog
The rain has begun, the air smells like falling leaves, I'm craving cider (the grown-up variety), and I wish I could step into the quaint and cozy world of Toast UK...When I used to receive the Toast catalogues (I don't anymore because I only ever bought one thing — blast the powerful pound!), I would pore over them every morning with my coffee, daydreaming about old-fashioned kitchens, perfectly worn-in linen, freshly-chopped firewood, and moccasins warmed on a pot-bellied stove. My San Francisco apartment came with none of these amenities! No wood-burning fireplace, can you believe it!? Where will I use the toasting fork? Where will I hang my (by my calculations) $231 worth of Fair Isle socks to dry? However, I'm a bit relieved there's not a pile of boots in my corner, and that I don't have to sleep on shipping pallets. But oh, that crocheted blanket is beautiful...
Until the US dollar gains strength or I get a job as a Toast model, I'll have to find other ways to cozy-up my apartment. Baking bread always helps, as does a thick wool shawl draped over my telephone-talking chair, warm ballet shoe-like slippers, and beeswax candles burning in the evenings. What about you?

Um... that looks like it might be a bit of a fire hazard. Just saying...
Perhaps the picture comes with a disclaimer -- don't try this at home...
And another thing... those Macausland blankets -- they are available from the mill in PEI for a lot less money than they are listed in the Toast catalog -- in case anyone is interested. Just don't hang them by your wood stove.
I live in the UK and this stuff is a lot of overpriced toot.
Definitely a fire hazard! AT had better post a disclaimer... lol
The catalogues are beautiful for sure. I have bought some clothing from them, the organic jeans and linen mix jersey tops and tunics are really good quality and I have worn mine so much, they really are favorites. Basic pieces with an interesting design detail. From the home collection I have one linen flat sheet and pillow cases and I love them too. Some of the stuff does seem expensive - but I refuse to buy cheap un-ethically made stuff.
I love all of the blankets in these photos!

I was playing with the 1.1.1 dmg's when i tried to decrypt them using WINACE (i know it may sound silly). The program asked me for the password and the first thing that came in my mind was "dottie" so Win Ace attempted to decrypt it but it showed me an error telling me " It was not encrypted with WinAce".
The very strange thing is that it told me it wasn't encrypted with WinAce but didn't say anything about wrong password.
So if there is anyone out there with the proper decryptor should try this password.
Sorry for my english.

This Week's Photo - 7 April
So I took a look at my own collection to see if I have any smiling babies and found that I have several. The result is this week's Photo Of The Week - Walter Lian - a very happy baby. He isn't 19th Century, but I believe he's just a few years off. His smile is almost a look of surprise and you have to wonder if he has made a noise with the bell in his hand that wasn't expected.
What The Photograph Tells Us:
(1) The card mount measures 6 in. X 8 in and is 1.55mm thick. The photograph measures approximately 4 in. by 5 1/2 in. The edges of the card are beveled, the corners are rounded. The card stock is textured, the original color appears to be a darker brown (matte finish) front, lighter tan back, and a creme colored bevel.
(2) The photographer's imprint on the front (recto) of the photograph lists the photographer as Holand, Grand Forks, N.D.
(3) Handwritten in ink on the verso is William Lian (under year old). Barely legible at the bottom of the card is Viola Hansen.
(4) Walter is wearing a white eyelet long gown. His hair is bowl cut with no part. The chair he is sitting on is a wicker and bentwood chair in a sled or chaise form. He holds a bell. The background is well done and of a high quality. Care and attention have been taken to the cropping of the photograph and its mounting on the card stock.
Card Analysis:
The card is consistent with mounts of the early to mid-1900s in both size, thickness, texture, bevel, and color.
Photographer and Imprint Analysis:
The card lists the place of business as Grand Forks, N.D., not territory, but the state of North Dakota. North Dakota became a state on November 2, 1889. The oldest the card could be would be the year 1889.
An Albert Holand/Holland is found in Grand Forks, North Dakota, owning his own photographic business in both 1900 and 1910. Holland immigrated from Norway in 1884 and is listed in the 1910 census as 44 years old. I find no Albert Holand and no photographer listed for that section of Grand Forks in 1920.
Conclusion: Holand could have been in business as early as November 1889 (North Dakota statehood - he would have been 18 years old) and as late as December 1919 (1920 census enumerated in January). This is a thirty year span of time and not particularly helpful to dating the photograph.
At this point Grand Forks' directories and newspapers should be researched for further information on Albert Holand.
William Lian Analysis:
Lian is a fairly uncommon surname. There are only 131 Lians listed in total for the 1880 - 1920 census. No Walter Lian is found in the 1900 or 1910 census for Grand Forks or for anywhere in the United States. A Walter K. Lian is found in the 1920 census for Sheridan, Montana. He is the step-son of twenty-eight year old Edward Corey, a coal miner, and Corey's thirty-seven year old wife Laura. According to the census Walter was born in North Dakota and is thirteen years old as of January 17, 1920.
We have absolutely no proof this is the Walter Lian in the photograph. Assuming it is, Walter would have been under a year old in 1907. Birth certificates as well as the Ancestry census for 1900 and 1910 should be explored for further information on Walter.
Clothing and Furniture Analysis:
The long white eyelet gown worn by Walter is consistent with what was called a day gown and was worn by both boys and girls in the early 1900s. His bowl cut hairdo is not significant, as babies' hair was what it was, conforming only to what the child was born with.
Most photographs during this period of history were taken to commemorate one of life's passages or a special occasion. We have nothing here to indicate a passage or a special occasion.
Before the turn of the century, Victorian-style wicker became extremely popular. The Victorian style was highly fanciful with an abundance of curves, curlicues and intricate patterns. However, early in the 20th century, public taste veered toward straighter lines and more simple designs in wicker.
This wicker piece, which looks like a small sled or chaise, is much less ornate than the Victorian style of the turn of the century and is consistent with other furniture pieces I have found dated between 1900 and 1910.
Conclusion: The clothing and furniture are consistent with the period 1900 - 1910.
The photograph in relation to the mount, photographer, clothing, and furniture is consistent with the period of 1900 - 1910. If the Walter Lian of the 1920 census is our pictured baby, then the photograph could be dated 1907.
This is far too much supposition and too little proof, but does show the process of analysis.

OTTAWA, Ontario, Feb. 26, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Enterprise storage has historically been hampered by technical and architectural factors that severely limit application performance. The I/O limitations of hard disk-based arrays, and the latency imposed by PCI-Express based SSDs and architectures such as SAN and NAS, create bottlenecks for applications where speed and determinism are paramount.
The emergence of solid state flash continues to disrupt the storage market with the recent introduction of Memory Channel Storage™ (MCS™), an award-winning platform that delivers tens of terabytes of flash capacity in a single server with near-DRAM speeds. MCS technology puts NAND flash into a DIMM form factor and enables it to interface with the CPU via the integrated memory controller. The result is a new class of high-performance, in-memory storage that eliminates the OS/IO/network overhead inherent to legacy storage arrays.
Diablo Technologies™, a proven innovator in memory system interface products and creator of the MCS architecture, offers eleven reasons to leverage this ground-breaking technology to optimize application performance for database, big data, virtualization, and low latency workloads.
About Diablo Technologies
Founded in 2003, Diablo is at the forefront of developing breakthrough technologies to set the standard for next-generation enterprise computing. Diablo's Memory Channel Storage solution combines innovative software and hardware architectures with Non-Volatile Memory to introduce a new and disruptive generation of Solid State Storage for data-intensive applications.
The Diablo executive leadership team has decades of experience in system architecture, chip-set design and software development at companies including Nortel Networks, Intel, Cisco, AMD, SEGA, ATI, Cadence Design Systems, Matrox Graphics, BroadTel Communications and ENQ Semiconductor.

Social...Social...Social...if you say it enough people will believe it.
It has been all about social learning this year. The thing is...nobody is really doing it. I have heard from many companies/peers and while there is some social aspect to what everyone is doing, there appears to be no real social learning happening out there.
Well...let me rephrase that...there is no "designed" social learning out there. Tons of folks are learning via social networks, peer groups, communities, informal networking...etc. but none if it seems to be orchestrated by companies or learning departments.
I went to a session where Masie was saying that we are barely at the beginning of chapter 1 whenever it comes to social learning. I tend to believe this analysis. I think that we in our field focus too much energy on trying to push social learning that we forget to reflect on what the learner really wants...content and context in the format they choose.
Personally, I think it is too early to try and ram social learning down the throats staff. I think that we need to step back and even (dare I say this) put on our instructional design hats and focus our attentions on analysis of learner needs and also on how they use technology to support their learning.
Lots has been discussed about communities of practice, but communities can only live if the learner wants them. We talk about incentives to spur participation in communities, but is this really what we want.
Do we want false participation in a community or a social learning platform because someone wants a chunk of chocolate or a gift card? The WIIFM with social learning and communities is not a badge or some reward. The WIIFM needs to be related to some sort of intrinsic reward that the learner benefits from...not some extrinsic token.
All that said...how do we move forward with social learning. My answer is that I think we wait. Or...at least we do lots of analysis before we make any steps into this.
Nothing I have seen, here, this week has knocked my socks of. Nobody is doing anything revolutionary or interesting in the field of social learning. There is definitely a huge opportunity out there, but we need the learners to drive this.
All we can do is keep both eyes open, follow trends and then jump in when the learner seems ready to have us.
Just my 2 cents.

Went to a session that TGI Fridays was doing on using video. The good thing to know is that the type of video we are shooting is pretty much on target with best practices out there. The days of high quality professional video are pretty much relegated to television now. Fridays uses Sony Bloggie cameras for their internal video. No special lighting, no actors...nothing, good to see
Waiting for the morning keynote to start, looking forward to seeing Josh Bersin...hopefully he wont be as boring as I am thinking. Maybe the format will help out,
Taking off for now

Social/Collaborative Learning and MOOCs
Elliott did one of his dump/rants just before lunch.
The graphic I sen to folks at work was what he used as his presentation template. Some really interesting insights from him. Here they go...
- Social and collaborative learning are not the same thing, they are strange cousins of each other. He said that "people learn together when they feel the need to do so"...again, this hits on the build it and they won't come type of thought process. People will learn socially and collaboratively, but only if they feel the need to do so. We can't really force people into it.
- "People need content from the organization, but they also need context and field truth." Content is the physical content...context is supplied by the instructor (or the instruction) and field truth comes from peers. Learners need the ability to learn from other learners...this will supply the field truth.
- Learners will maximize their learning by having the opportunity to teach someone else
Question about this last point...
- Is there some way that we can leverage this in our organization? What if we taught classes and then gave the participants the ability to teach snippets of what they learned to others. We could make use of cTools to capture these little snippets of learning. How about we then post them out there (for free) for people at the U to read. People will learn from them...the participants will also have their learning solidified and validated by doing this small amount of teaching. We would also have some free marketing for the class the attendee went to along with content that we can then mine and cycle back to the classes to make them better.
- this concept interested me. I am going to go to a session this afternoon about it. Basically, it is a giant open class that anyone can attend and anyone can contribute to.
I also think of this in terms of what we are doing. What if we offered a MOOC about competencies. Nothing specific, but more of a general knowledge session about competencies..what they are...etc. We also introduce the concept of organizational competencies (even our own). We encourage participation and even ask people about the University culture and what competencies would work. This could be some foundation work for a project to re-look at the Org competencies. It would also engage people in what competencies are...we would create some champions of competencies and even some change agents.
I think this is worth looking at.

Starting out
First thing, excuse the typing. I am using my iPad for the, so who knows what type of words are going to pop up here
Been an interesting day so far. I thought I was going to focusing on video, but the social aspect of learning seems to be taking over. Som interesting points...
If you tell people that they must collaborate, the often stop altogether. The truth is that if you build it they will not come, This seems to be the overwhelming experience of those doing social learning. Also, the social learning I am seeing is really just about supporting communities of practice...not what I would call real social learning.
A tip is to find what activities drive people together and then leverage these activities to give social learning some direction,
One. Many here is tying social kearning to the organizational competences. I found this very interesting and think that this may be a good entry point for social learning at Michigan. Do someing like this.
- here are the competences
- here is some info about them
- support the communities
- keep the conversation about the org competencies open
- ask people to comment
- minimally moderate it
- mine for content
Also learned about MOOCs (massive open online courses)
I think these are something we need to look at...more about this later...a session starting.

Stronger Together: GA Rallies the Troops in South Dakota
September 1, 2011 –There are a total of 72 airports throughout the entire state of South Dakota, with only six providing commercial passenger service. "Now that's a state that appreciates the value of GA," said EAA President/CEO Rod Hightower at the GAMA South Dakota General Aviation Rally Wednesday, August 31, at the Pierre Regional Airport (PIR).
Hightower and other GA organization leaders appeared at the event organized by GAMA, not only to send a message to the public that GA is crucial to the economy by creating jobs and generating millions of dollars of economic impact, but also for health care, agriculture, politics, and law enforcement. More than 100 people, many of them EAA members, turned out at Mustang Aviation, with special guests Governor Dennis Daugaard and U.S. Senator John Thune.
"We have a large state, vast geography, wide open space, so we have great history and heritage with GA in South Dakota," said Thune, who is ranking member of the Senate aviation subcommittee. "So it's really important that we appreciate that but we also look at that continuing in the future and that's what many of the people here are interested in and committed to."
Other GA leaders appearing were Pete Bunce of GAMA, Craig Fuller of AOPA, Dick Doubrava of NBAA, Jim Coyne of NATA, and John Cudahy of ICAS. As he stresses at his Grassroots Pilot Tour stops, Hightower spoke about two subjects: how EAA is creating the next generation of aviators, and how the various GA organizations are stronger when they work together.
"There are two cards you need to carry in your wallets," he said "AOPA, to protect your right to fly, and EAA, to create the next generation of aviators. We're stronger together when all associations are working to be better advocates of GA."
Hightower met with several EAA members, most notably Vern Kraemer, EAA 72, who joined the association all the way back in 1953. Vern mentioned receiving dual training a few years ago in EAA's Spirit of St. Louis replica.
Hightower also gave special thanks to event hosts Jim and Kathy Peitz of Mustang Aviation. Jim is an air show performer and has flown many times at Oshkosh.
"They're longtime EAA members who truly understand the impact and value of GA," Hightower said.

I am not embarrased to say that I get pimples and its nice that there is something to help hide them thats made for guys. It is descrete and works great. Would reccomend for anyone who gets the occassional zit
I think this is a great idea for all men, and I know my man was happy with it and will definitely get a lot of use from this product. It's a nice concealer, like I would buy for myself, however it's easy for him to use and it's got acne treatment inside! Reminds me of the Clean and Clear acne concealer sticks.
This product is alright, however it has a bit of a greasy feel/look and doesn't blend very well for certain areas.
Not very pleased with this product,it applys very cake like and looks like I have on a ton of Make-up,thats NOT too cool for a dude!! Oh well !! Better luck next time!!
I bought this on a whim since I just got a huge zit and wanted to cover it up while healing it at the same time. I've never used make-up before, but started a new job and it would look silly for a 30 year old to have a zit. After applying the dark shade, it covers the blemish, and after 2 days, has noticeably reduced its size. I would recommend to any professional man!
This is my first experience with a product of this type, and I'm pretty impressed. I bought the light shade as I have pale skin. The concealer aspect is effective in making blemishes much less noticeable. I'm sure the salicylic acid will do what salicylic acid does and help get rid of the problem areas.
It works great! It covers ups the imperfections and the salicylic acid drys my pimples. I have it in my bag everywhere. As a man I don't need a full makeup, so it is practical and works well for me. Find your color and try it!
The medium tint is actually very light, so it stands out when I applied it. The darker color would need to be a whole lot different. I rubbed it in, but that had little effect on the problem point. This seems more like a small soft stick of really light women's make up.
Saw this product a while ago in a magazine I wait to buy it. I am glad I finally did ....It does a good job of covering "unwanted things". I can also bring it with me cause the packaging doesn't scream make up. I will buy again.
I was excited to order this! Seeing as it the only mens conceal and treat product on BirchBox i thought it had to be good but i thought wrong :(

Waiting for Edgewater fireworks to start
My lovely wife Sera and I are hanging out near the Edgewater City Hall waiting for the fireworks to begin. It's 8 p.m. and we're beat. It has been a very hectic Fourth of July dealing with tragic breaking news in yet another toddler drowning as well as other news stories of the day and the assorted blogs edited and then posted here on NSBNews.net.
This is our fourth year covering the Edgewater fireworks since our April 7, 2008, launch of this exclusively-online newspaper. We'll have extensive video coverage of the event.
Like many of you, we've been monitoring the Casey Anthony saga on HLN,
the sister cable network of CNN, and, of course, on the Internet with the Associated Press videos here on our home page as well as other news sites.
If I have enough energy after the fireworks, I'll probably post something on the Anthony trial. Sera and I wish all of you and your loved ones a safe and happy Fourth.

Prince George's County police arrested three Oxon Hill men suspected of burglarizing 50 homes in the Oxon Hill and Fort Washington area since the beginning of the year.
The three allegedly stole flat screen televisions, laptops and computers, jewelry, money and guns among other items, said Capt. Charles Hamby, of Prince George's County Police Department's burglary suppression unit.
At a press conference Friday at Prince George's County Police Headquarters in Landover, Hamby said that the 50 burglarized homes police know of are only in the Fort Washington and Oxon Hill area, but there could be more.
Hamby said more than $2 million worth of items were stolen.
"They went into neighborhoods that were off the main drag, and they had one person in the crew who would knock on the door, looking for an individual," said Hamby. "And, if they didn't get an answer, then they would target that house and burglarize that house."
At one of the burglarized homes, a neighbor's security camera caught the type of vehicle the suspects were using, but a tag number was not visible, Hamby said.
"But a few days later we got the tip we needed," Hamby said.
A citizen noticed a man selling seven big screen televisions out of his car in a Washington, D.C., shopping center parking lot near the District and Prince George's County border at Southern Avenue. The citizen informed an off-duty Prince George's County police officer in his cruiser.
The officer was aware of the burglaries and called detectives. This led to the arrest of 40-year-old Anthony Nyrekie Edwards, who was the alleged leader, said Detective Dave Gross of PGPD burglary suppression unit.
A short time after Edwards was arrested, police apprehended David Benjamin Neal, 24, and Jamal Cooke, 21. Police said some of the three arrested have been cooperating.
All three have been charged with burglary. Cooke was released on a $25,000 bond.
Police said similar burglaries took place in Fairfax County, Va., and in Charles County during the same period of time. Investigators are looking into the possibility that the same crew was involved in those cases.
Drugs were the apparent motivation for the crimes. Police said all three members of the Edwards ring are addicted to narcotics.

159 Lexington Ave, New York, NY | Directions 1001640.743866 -73.981544
Monday To Sunday From 08:00 AM To 11:00 PM
Neighborhoods: Kips Bay, Midtown
A shortcut to that road-trip cafe you will never forget – Penelope is one of a kind, I cant put my finger on it, if its the food or if its the staff or the physical atmosphere of the place that makes eating there such a unique experience. Every time I go there I have the same feeling, in the middle of that great road trip of life, every bite of that Grilled Chicken Club, a smile from one of the Penelopee's and suddenly Im transported in to an American Beauty moment.
Great FOOD – This place is like no other in the area.
Great comfortable place always busy and easily the best food option in the area.
We had a blast waiting for a table and met new people outside while waiting to be seated.
Delish! – The only bad thing about this place is that during peak times there is a long wait to be seated. The food is that great! This country kitchen serves the most delicious food..great spinach artichoke dip, a spectacular chicken meatball sandwich, an addicting veggie burger...I can go on and on. And don't forget to order desert! Its way too good o pass up!
Totally a best option! – This is definitely one of my favorite brunch spots. It's literally right next to my house, so I carefully observe the massive line that begins to form every Sunday morning at 10am.
Lovely Penelope's – If you want a neighborhood place where the food is good then go to Penelope's. I am from out of town and go to New York once a year. This past weekend will be the 4th year we've had breakfast at Penelope's ... its a must on our trip. I've only been there for breakfast and there is a long wait..but come on guys, its breakfast! Get up earlier and if you're there by 9:30am a table for 4 took 20 minutes. Totally worth it for the papaya/strawberry and coconut waffles...yummmmm
Not worth the wait – I arrived at Penelope to meet some friends recently, only to be told i had to wait outside the cafe 'until my party arrived'. No problem if the place is full, but it was off-peak and i counted least four available tables.
The arrogance of such a small business eludes me - so 'small town' so mean-spirited. I felt humiliated and silly. Never, never again.
Delicious Comfort Food – Penelope is our neighborhood favorite dining spot. The food is always delicious and the service friendly. Their menu changes by the season, but they've always got their amazing chicken meatball. Their brunch is also a must - definitely worth the wait!
I would not hesitate to recommend this restaurant looking for a casual, low-key place to dine.
Reliably good. – My wife and I usually go to Penelope's for breakfast, and we always enjoy our meal. Several times we have brought out of town guest, and they have also enjoyed the spot. Even after a year, one out of towners still comments on how much they liked Penelope's. I am bringing my mom and dad there today, as I know my mom will love the atmosphere, and my dad will love the food.
Ignorant vs Indifferent – I went there with 2 other African American woman. The waitress brought out food and never came back. The waitor who was apparently covering for her was rude and ignored us. We had to ask the busboy to get him for our check. When he did come around, he referred to us as "girls." When he came with the check he through it on the table. To add to insult, we decided the service did not merit a tip and left. He followed us outside and asked why the waitress he was covering did not get a tip, if there was a problem with the service???? I emphatically responded, "YES, it was horrible."
Mac and Cheese Me – Friendly service, quiet and low key. Fair prices and nice beer on tap selection. Best place in neighborhood.

And then the baby begins to sway. The ghost whirr of the AC dying hard in our ears, we've grown paralytically hot in the living room, some whiff of something gunpowder-like coming through the window, and all of life suddenly, wrongfully without power. Somewhere not far mephitic men with weapons must be raising those black flags marked with the statement of the faith in white rudimentary abjad, behemoth beards bereft of all mustachios, shrieking their support for the President of the Second Republic. Before long, enraged guevaras will be heading straight for the fuckers. They will be wielding slogans as they die of what, through rev-o-lution, they have brought upon themselves. The streets are quiet except for gun shots sounding a slow beat when the baby slithers off her mother's lap and crawls to the center of the room, quarreling with balance and gravity until, plump legs ending in all but edible feet in two arches across a few square inches of the carpet, she is sitting. Her miniature fists grab invisible parallel bars as she rocks to and fro, up and down, shaking her head along the opposite axis and humming a crude rhythm in the candlelight. When she notices us notice her, she gathers speed. While she sways she is neither crying nor laughing her high, raucous laugh, the one that comes with a flurry and directionless shaking of the limbs. Now, as she rocks with martial regularity, her face is dead serious. This is evidently a matter of great importance; it must be done in a professional spirit. And then the father too rises, finally, wading in the humidity to the nearest flat surface, a closed door, where he manages to stand. And, taking my cue from a gun shot, my wife clapping along with me, the baby like a pendulum while Egypt burns, I begin to drum.

The Piedmont City Council approved a utility policy Tuesday that states renters will be charged $100 more than homeowners to connect to utility services. The vote came after more than a month of public discussion about how the city could recoup the money it says it loses from unpaid utility bills.
"This decision that the city has made will be good for the utility and the residents," electric Superintendent Casey Ponder said after the meeting.
Ponder said he hoped the increase would take effect "by next week."
Prior to Tuesday's decision, all utility customers were charged a non-refundable $250 fee to be connected to the city's water, gas, electric and sewer lines. Under the new policy, homeowners will be charged a $300 refundable deposit and renters will be charged a $400 refundable deposit.
A vote on the measure was postponed late last month after Councilwoman Brenda Spears raised questions about whether it would be discriminatory to charge renters more than homeowners for the same service.
City attorney Ron Allen said Tuesday it is lawful for the city to charge renters more than homeowners because city documents state that renters are more likely than homeowners to move without paying their utility bills.
"As long as it's not motivated by age, race or sex discrimination, it's permissible," Allen said. "They have a legitimate governmental reason for doing that."
Four members -- Mayor Rick Freeman and councilmen Bill Baker, Kenny Kelley and Terry Kiser -- voted in support of the measure. Councilmen Ben Keller and Frank Cobb abstained from voting. Spears and Councilwoman Millie Bramblett voted against the measure.
The measure had been introduced at a May meeting.
To ensure the city got a return for the service it provides renters, the council discussed several options that would affect customers' bill payment plans. One measure would have required landlords to open utility accounts on behalf of their renters and another would have required renters to pay more than $500 in security deposits.
Both of those proposals inspired public debate between council members and landlords, who said the changes would have hurt their business.
"I can live with it," Baker said of the measure he supported. "I found out the amounts were not going to increase drastically."

Thirty-six years ago, when I first laid eyes upon Ouray County, of course I was wowed by the fabulous vistas! What lured me into actually moving here, however, even more than the views, was the open welcome I experienced from the people who already lived here. Oldtimers and newcomers alike seemed not to concern themselves with one another's political, religious, or other affinities.
We are now facing the possible implementation of modifications to our Land Use Code Section 9 Visual Impact Regulations, as proposed by the Ouray County Planning Commission, and I am dismayed at the rancor which has seeped into the process.
I have just read online at http://ouraycountyco.gov/planvisual/OCPC Report - Sec 9 - Final.pdf the Ouray County Planning Commission's Report to the Ouray County Board of County Commissioners, which compares the current Visual Impact Regulations with the proposed revisions. I wonder how many of our county residents have read this Report.
Driving across the new Ridgway bridge on a recent afternoon, seeing children and their parents playing in the Uncompahgre with their kayaks, I was reminded of 30 years earlier, when my children and their friends and parents took cast-off inner tubes to spin and swing under the old town bridge. Around that time, a Survey was conducted, asking folks to voice their opinions about the quality of life in the county, the reasons they chose to make their homes here, the values they wanted to have recognized as important. Out of that survey, as I recall, grew the Master Plan, which then became codified in the Land Use Code, which led to the Visual Impact Regulations which are currently in force.
Have the values of the residents of Ouray County changed significantly over the past three decades? The county's population has grown steadily in that time, with newcomers still arriving at a pace more rapid than departures. This trajectory is likely to continue, and perhaps even increase. Is it time to conduct a new Survey, to discern the views of the populace as it is constituted today? I suspect that most folks, like me, want to keep our county as much as possible like the way it was when we fell in love with it.
If it's permissible, I would love to hear input from the Land Use Staff regarding the Section 9 proposals. I earnestly hope that anyone who speaks on the issue of the proposed Section 9 revisions (for, against, or otherwise) will do so on the basis of the contents of the document itself, rather than on uninformed suppositions, personal vendettas, or unfounded fears. I'm hoping our informed decision-making process will reflect our collective vision.
